His wife was Huldah Evaline Martin, born 1829. I cannot locate a Find A Grave Memorial for her. For Huldah, the only Census I could find after her husband John died shows her living in Bloomington, IN, and a death record shows her dying at age 81 on 21 Aug 1910, in Bloomington. Her son Tyson Benson signed it. The body was to be taken to Salem, IN. Burial Permit to J.C. Ross of Bloomington; Undertaker #990 S.L. Harrell. I've looked in every single Cemetery Book of the Wash. Co. IN Historical Society and find nothing. Need to check Stevens Library for obituary. Need to check opposite sides of her husband's and her son's stones to see if her name there (but they may not be readable.)

According to the red Cemetery books from the Washington Co. Historical society for this cemetery, the father of John T. Benson is Zachariah Benson and his mother's name is Elizabeth. His death certificate gives her name as Elizabeth McCay, with both parents born in KY.

He died at age 74 years 7 months and 7 days and was born in KY.

His death certificate give birth date as April 16, 1829, and age as 74 y 7m 7 d.
